I'm new to the whole xml world. I'm looking to find out if its possible and how to do so if. I'm using an xmlhttprequest on a web page to access an xml file. What I'm looking for is to have a user input a number sequence of 8 digits. Now I can pull in the responseText to a div and search the contents of the div by TD's for a match but its a lot of unwanted llag time. Is there a way to search the contents and only pull the match instead of the entire page contents? I've tried an eval but it does not seem to work for TD's. I've tried responceXML but only get either object or null. Unfort there is no way to name or I'd the elements. But its something I need currently I've been hand coding them into js. But I want to get away from having to recode everytime there is an update. Any ideas or suggestions?
